The Pronoun He.

a brother of the Indiana Conference,
very estimable man, and able preacher,
has an incurable habit of always annex
ing the pronoun che" to the name of any
person to whom he is alluding. This
habit even follows him into the pulpit,
sometimes with ludicrous results. This
was particularly the case on Sunday
when, before large congregation, he
arose and announced his text:
'.The devil he goeth about like a roar.
ing lion seeking whom he may devonr.' .
Looking impressively over his goldhowed
spectacles, he began:
"Brethern and sisters, my subject nat.
ually divides itself into three heads :
First, Who the devil he is ?"
The congregation was slightly startled,
but preserved due decorum.
Secondly, my brethren, where the
devil is he going
An old class leader put his head down
and stuffed bandanns in his mouth.
The choir shook, and little girl in the
gallery Uttered.
'sThirdly my brethren, what the devil
is he about7"
This was too much for the coDgrega-
tion, and for once there was peal of
laughter in that church. The quarterly
conference discussed the matter at its
next meeting, but the pastor still sprink-
les bis pronouns promiscuously.

pressing the brain back through the,
opening, which could be easily done, as
the membrane was not ruptured, the
surgeon detected with his fingers hard
substance on the under side of the open.
ing. A piece of bone Was removed at
this point with fine forceps and q cystic
tumor was found imbedded in the brain.
How deep it extended could not be told,
but the surgeon at venture sank his
knife into the brain substance and began
cutting the tumor out. 1t was delicate
work and skilfully done. After about
an inch and half of the brain had been
divided the end of the tumor was found,
and the entire mass was removed without
much difficulty. A large hole was left
in the brain, and there was considerable
hemorrhage, which fortunately did not
last long. While the flap was being re-.
turned to position on the skull, one of
the assistants cut the tumor in half to
discover its nature, aud was surprised to
find firmly imbedded on one side large
bullet. twas much Aattened, and looked
like one Of the largest revolver bullets.
The patient fingered between life and
death for many days, and then there was
a marked improvement in the condition
of his body. The temperature became
normal and the power OF motion slowly
returned. The improvement was steady,
and at the end of four weeks the patient
had become conscious, and soon after.

It was then that bis name and the ci:.
cumstances told in regard to him first
became known.

There are flowers to. be seen in every

of these lovely grounds takes special de-
light in showing each peculiar plant 70

we fondly gazed as we walked. in almost
silence, in the beautiful "city Of the
dead"-Magnolia Cemetary, and of the
varied pleasures we experienced in
spending the day on Sullivan's Island,
gathering shells and watching the steam
ers and ships in the distance as they we're
steering their course to some foreign port
over the bosom Of the "mighty deep"
I long to hear again the roar of the grand
old ocean as she majestically sweeps from
shore to shore. T was shown through
the steamer Yemassee, and saw about
forty young Indians that were being
carried from one of the West India
islands to Philadelphia to be taught the
English Language. Imagine my conster-
nation when asked them if they could
speak English, and they threw them
selves on the floor of the boat and roared
and laughed, and uttered the queerest ex-
plantations. Il would like to tell you

A Mountain Bully.

a few years ago there died in noun.
tain county in East Tennessee man who
was noted bully. He was splendid
specimen Of physical manhood, and was
in every respect fighting bully. He
would fight at the drop of hat, and
could knock out a half dozen ordinary
men in one round. He would fight for
the fun Of it, and he who would dare
cross,his path was indeed a reckless man.
In the old days of state militia and "mus.
ter he was prominent man in the
neighborhood and colonel of q militia
regiment. On muster days, when the
drill was over, he would proceed to clean
up the regiment. When he shed his
coat, twisted his huge fist around few
times, and yelled at the top of his voice /:
SaHide out, little 'uns, I'm comin'p'
there would be general stampede.
This was how he.came to be called "Old
Hide Out";in after years.
$ When the late war came on he joined
one Of the confederate regiments and
made a brave, fearless soldier. During a
slight skirmish his company had with the
federals down in Georgia he took his
gun by the muzzle, and NTH his old time

coming brushed into the midst of the
federal, soldiers, putting them to flight;
not, however, without receiving q serious
wound in the head, which put him into
the hospital for months aud permanently
injured his mind.
When he returned to his native co,ln-
try he was not the fearless bully Of cid,
but a much broken, stoop shouldered and
crazy old man. He would stroll through
the neighborhood aimlessly and seeming
|;ly unconscious of his whereabouts, always
muttering to-himselfas he went: Eide
out, little 'uns, I'm coming" Little
boys aud girls would make sport Of him,
and "Old~ Hide" as they caileo MIN,
paid no heed to their mockery. He had
become perfectly harmless;
At last the old man became mortally
ill. He was alone in little cabin pro
vided for his use by an old comrade in
the army. a few friends who had known
him in his better days gathered around
his humble couch expecting the end. 1t
was now late in the afternoon, and the
old fellow had not spoken for days. he
was rapidly sinking, and some onefe-
marked that he would 60 down with the
sun, which was then pouring its last rays

HENRY GEORGES SCHEME.

In the lace OF the denial by Henry George
that he has formed a political alliance
with James G. Blaine for the purpose OF
confusing the labor vote i'll the City and
State of New York and thus prepare the
way for Democratic defeat comes a call by
the leaders of the United Labor party in
New York for a State Convention to be
held the seventeenth Of next August for the
purpose of nominating candidates for
State officers, the election for which will be
held in November next. It is not necessary,
says the Chicago News in commenting on
this call, that George should Indignantly
deny the charge that this activity has
for it's object "a profitable deal with
James G. Blaine in the Presidential cleo
ton of 1885," The Democratic leaders
may be relief upon to prevent the consum-
nation of any such bargain, if it should
be contemplated. while the RepnblicaL
managers will be quite as well served
if only the labor party organization
be maintained in reasonable activity.
What the Republican party has most to
fear in the immediate future is the growth
OF the Prohibition movement, and this is
giving more concern than the fortunes of
any individual candidate? What, between
the Republican losses on account OF the
Labor party, the lines are so shifting that
the shrewdest politicians are at fault. It
is simply impossible to predict the effect OF
these factors in any State so close as New
York. They will keep the leaders guessing
for some time to come"
